Recently I discovered Mujaddra (Lebanese Lentil and Rice). I'm flat out in love with this vegetarian dish. Definitely a fried eggs best friend.
I wonder if others have any experience with this dish? I've read at least twenty recipes on the web and have cooked it three times. Its not giving me that same yummy warm feeling like this Lebanese restaurant in Raleigh. I'd love any feedback.
One trick I learned was to cook the Bulgur (or Rice) in the drained water of the lentils. I was also going to use the whey from the drained yogurt in place of the water too.
For spices its usually: Cumin, Allspice and Cinnamon based. I substituted Garam Marsala (it tasted to Indian-ey) I'm sure someone has a better spice combo?
Here is the Wiki on it
